Accidental Death And Dismemberment insurance. Wow – doesn’t that sound just lovely? I mean, at least Life insurance has a euphemistic name (they call it “Life” insurance, not “death” insurance, which is really a little more apt). Disability, Critical Illness, and Long Term Care, although accurate in name, aren’t quite as ugly in description. But Accidental Death & Dismemberment (thankfully rolling off the tongue easily by more commonly being known as AD&D) is just ugly, and in more ways than one.
